Soil Salinity−A Global Problem of Agroecosystems

-

Now a days almost all countries of the world face the problem of Salinization of soil. It is one of the most decisive environmental factors limiting production in crop growing areas of arid and semi arid regions throughout the world. Till date soil salinization is an unavoidable phenomenon which cannot be overcome. Gradual loss of agricultural land due to soil salinization may cause a serious problem for human population in near future. A lot of natural and antropogenic factors are responsible for soil salinization. The impact of soil salinization on human population is of multidimensional. In addition it is also harmful to entitre  biotic component of ecosystem including plants, animals, microbes etc. Together with overpopulation, decrease agricultural land and overexploitation of water resources, soil salinization limits food security.The present communication deals with the impact of soil salinity on agricultural ecosystem and about the  probable methods to check the negative impact of soil salinity. Various researchers have developed some revolutionized steps to limit some extent the negative impact of soil salinity on agriculture.Among the sustainable technological approach most common one is the removal of salts from saline soils by tolerant plants.

Economic importance of bryophyte.                   Bryophytes are the amphibian member of plant kingdom, which are also known as moss.Unlike most of the higher plants bryophytes are found in groups of individual   and they never form any mechanical tissue.Bryophyte often play in the economy of nature, as ecological indicator, medicinal raw materials and many other aspects. The economic importance of   bryophytes are grouped in to following headings ........................... A.    Ecological Importances :            Bryophytes are important constituent of ecosystem in temperate and tropical region   of earth.They are ecologically important because of following reasons 1. Bryophytes and plant succession : Among the bryophytes the mosses are considered to potent forms of successional process. They colonize over   the nutrient poor ...

Herbicides

-
  Herbicides   Herbicide is a chemical substance used to control or manipulate undesirable vegetation, especially weeds. They are extensively used in gardening, farming, and landscape turf management.   Classification of herbicides Herbicides are classified according to their:- Selectivity Mode of action Timing of application Chemical group Mechanism of action   2.1 Selectivity:   A) Non-selective herbicide kills or damages all plant life in a treated area (e.g., Glyphosate).   B) Selective herbicide will kill weeds in a germinating or growing crop without   harming the crop beyond the point of recovery (e.g., 2, 4-D used to control broadleaved weeds in a grass pasture; Avadex to control wild oats in cereals)   2.2 Mode of action:   A) Contact herbicides – Kills plant parts covered by the herbicide and are directly toxic to living cells. There is little or no translocation or movement of the material through the plant. Contact herbicides are...
